Kanye West claims ex Kim Kardashian can't prove he slammed her and boyfriend online

Kanye West claimed estranged wife Kim Kardashian can't prove that he wrote the posts attacking her and Pete Davidson.

The rapper, 44, has been posting rants against the Saturday Night Live comedian, 28, and those associated with him on Instagram.

At one point, he even called Pete a 'd***head' and mocked his Hillary Clinton tattoo.

He even shared a private message from Pete and said the comedian would never meet his kids.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Kanye is attempting to make his social media posts about Kim, Pete and others inadmissible in next week's hearing concerning the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star request to become single.

The Runaway rapper claims the mother of his children, 41, cannot prove he wrote any of those social media posts.

His lawyers claimed the posts are “double hearsay.”

Ye's lawyer said: “Kim claims she read something online allegedly by Kanye and characterizes the posts in her declaration as misinformation ... Kim needed to offer the social media posts into evidence, and show that the posts were written by Kanye."

However, the legal documents never stated that Kanye didn't write the social media posts.

His lawyer also says the prenup cannot be viewed as valid, claiming that there’s a presumption in California that prenups signed after 2001 are invalid.

It was claimed that, in order to validate the prenup, Kim and Kanye have to agree to it or there has to be a trial.

Mirror have contacted his rep for comment.

Not only did Kanye call Pete names, but he also referenced a sketch the SNL star did about the rapper.

In a now-deleted rant, Kanye took issue with a sketch Pete performed on Saturday Night Live back in 2018, that referenced the rapper's controversial comments about slavery being a choice.

Despite being warned by ex Kim that he was "creating a dangerous and scary environment and someone will hurt Pete and this will all be [his] fault", Kanye returned to criticising the comedian once again.

In one of the now-deleted posts, the dad-of-four claimed he wasn’t harassing Pete, but just getting "payback".

"This boy thought he could get away with performing this sketch for the team that wrote this for him," Kanye fumed about the Weekend Update segment in which Pete called out the singer's MAGA endorsement.

"This is not harassment This is payback."

In the bit from four years ago, Pete wore a red hat that said: "Make Kanye 2006 Again".

Seeming not a fan of the throwback clip, Kanye slammed the comic in an Instagram caption, writing: "HI SKETE YOU GOT ANYMORE MENTAL HEALTH JOKES FOR ME?"
